Add and manage skills

- [Instructor] It's important to add skills to your LinkedIn profile in order to showcase what you can do and to help you show up in searches, you can add skills by navigating to the kills section of your profile and here clicking on the plus icon. From here, you can add skills being suggested based on your account or type in a different skill that you'd like to add. Here, I'll type in leadership and then select the skill from the list. You can then show them where you've used this skill in both your work experience and education. When you're done, click Save, and like that I've added my skill. Once you have skills added to your profile, you can reorder them at any time. In order to do this, click on the pencil icon next to your skill section. Next, select the three dot icon up at the top, and from here, select Reorder. Once you do this, you can now drag different skills into different positions to change the order of them. That's how simple it is to add and reorder the skills on your LinkedIn profile. Remember that you can have up to 50 skills in your profile, so include any that you think are relevant.
